8 GG'ers helped the volunteers at the Mayfield Open Space. We were tasked with widening the gravel path which was being encroached with grass and weeds.

We were all pleasantly surprised when we arrived for two reasons:

1) Michal was there to greet us even though he wasn't signed up (he stayed to help out so definitely earned his good deed)! 2) We were all given our own trowels, mats for resting our knees and buckets for the weeds. We were spoilt rotten!

With our tools we quickly got to work and were making very good progress. Some people were having a great time on it:

I feel like I'm creating a Roman Road - Steve

After over an hours graft we made a good start on the path and will definitely be back soon to help out again!
